Normal posture
Crooked posture
When the hamstring muscles shorten,
they pull the pelvis downward,
causing a posterior rotation.
The shortened hamstring leads to a distorted posture, which stretches the lower back muscles and constantly keeps them tense, resulting in stiffness and pain.

If the cause of back pain is due to improper posture, the pain will persist unless the problem is addressed. Additionally, tingling pain that lasts for more than 1-3 months can be a symptom of a difficult-to-recover condition such as a herniated disk, spinal stenosis, or sciatica if left untreated. Therefore, it is recommended to seek treatment immediately when experiencing back pain or tingling.

Priformis muscle
Sciatic nerve
Most cases of leg numbness and buttock pain are often caused by the Piriformis muscle,
which is either shortened or damaged, putting pressure on the sciatic nerve.
This phenomenon is commonly referred to as 'sciatica'.

Cause
01
In case of insufficient muscular strength or severe muscle shortening.
02
When muscles become shortened or swollen due to inflammation, causing pressure on the nerves.
03
When nerves are damaged due to physical pressure or friction, leading to inflammation.
04
If sudden external force is applied to the back muscles, causing a sprain.
Symptoms
01
Always feeling stiff in the lower back.
02
Experiencing pain in the lower back when sitting for a long time or bending over.
03
Feeling numbness or tingling in the buttocks or legs.
04
Experiencing more severe pain in the buttocks or hip joint in certain positions.
Treatment for Lower back, hip
There are many different causes of lower back and hip pain. However, the most common causes for modern people are overuse and strain of the lower back muscles due to improper posture, as well as conditions that compress nerves such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and sciatica.
J&J Therapy uses various methods such as postural correction massage therapy, shockwave therapy, electrical stimulation therapy, and self-exercise education to correct the underlying posture and quickly and effectively treat
the inflammation that causes pain.
By addressing both the cause and the result at the same time, it shows a rapid therapeutic effect
and helps prevent the recurrence of pain.

The effectiveness of shockwave therapy for Lower back, hip pain
If there is some kind of damage or injury to the muscles around the waist and the intensity has weakened, shockwave therapy can be a good option if the pain persists for more than three months. Chronic pain usually occurs in situations where the healing process is slow, but shockwave therapy expands the blood vessels in specific areas and stimulates the healing mechanism to accelerate the healing process.
01_ Treatment for chronic back pain
If you have pain or numbness from your buttocks to your legs, it is often caused by the Piriformis muscle that has become tight or damaged, causing inflammation and compressing the nerves. This situation is called sciatica. Shockwave therapy can help quickly and effectively treat the inflammation of the Piriformis muscle, relieving numbness and pain in the legs. Afterward, stretching therapy is usually done in conjunction to prevent recurrence.
The muscles in the lower back can generate chronic inflammation due to the accumulation of fatigue substances caused by excessive use, which can lead to long-term discomfort in the lower back. Shockwave therapy works by expanding the blood vessels in the treated area and creating new ones to quickly remove fatigue substances and treat inflammation.
This results in a significant relaxation effect on the muscles, which can help quickly and effectively alleviate pain and discomfort in the lower back.
